Full Name: Dimitrios Athanaselos (Δημήτριος Αθανασέλος)

Date of Birth: 1988

Initially influenced by the original drummer of Phase, George Agnantis, Dim became an important person in the band’s early years. He briefly took on the role of drummer when tensions between Jim Lytras and Thanos led to Jim‘s departure. Though his time behind the kit was short, Dim played several key gigs with the band, contributing significantly to their early live performances and image. His stage presence helped shape the band’s energy during this period, leaving a mark on the band’s performances.

Dim was also a close confidant during the crucial stages of the band’s development, from before he joined, and particularly when they were assembling material for their first album. He was highly vocal in discussions about the band’s image, offering his creative input on how they should present themselves both musically and visually. His influence in these early discussions helped shape the band’s identity, particularly in terms of the artistic direction they wanted to pursue.

However, after the band decided to part ways with him, Dim turned his creative focus to writing. He soon found his voice as a published writer and poet, channeling the same passion and introspection he had once expressed through music into the written word.
